\"Flux Application

The best way to apply a flux is to paint it onto the joint as apaste. It is common to see operators heating the rod endand dipping it into the flux, and then applying both to the joint.This `hot rodding\' technique has the disadvantages that theflux does not protect the joint during the heating cycle, andthat the limited amount of flux applied does not preventoxidation of the parent metals in the vicinity of the joint. Alloypenetration into the capillary gap is also restricted\"
